Apple's stock has been
steadily rising over the past four months, particularly since the company reported
record-breaking earnings results, including revenue of $78.4 billion and net quarterly profit of $17.9 billion, in late January. The stock rose over $7 in a single day following the January 31 results.
Apple analyst Brian White of investment firm Drexel Hamilton has persistently said AAPL remains "
one of the most underappreciated stocks in the world," and his target price for the stock is $185. Steven Milunovich of UBS and some other analysts have also said the stock is undervalued in recent weeks.
Apple's stock has rebounded significantly since dropping to a 52-week low of $89.47 last May. The price was likely impacted by Apple's comparably lackluster 2016, which marked the company's first year-over-year decline in annual revenue since 2001 after
51 consecutive quarters of uninterrupted sales growth.
Apple is the world's most valuable company with a market capitalization approaching $700 billion.
